"This tragedy two unrelated incidents in one day you wake up and you're going to work like it's a normal day," said Sangrey.

On Nov. 16, Sangrey and her 14-year-old daughter left their rented home in Azalea Park, and within an hour the house was in flames and 61-year-old Bonnie Stephens was dead.

"My mom was my best friend. She was my rock," said Sangrey.

Sangrey's aunt, 55-year-old Rebecca Vanhorn, died later that evening.

When the family tried to reach 42-year-old Robert Cox, Sangrey's older brother, they learned he was also in the hospital. He was found unresponsive early in the morning in his own home.

Cox was pronounced brain dead that evening.

"That is the only answer I have now. Only God knows, because I don't," said Sangrey.

Sangrey is also dealing with the total loss of her home.

Two local companies have stepped in to help, including Armstrong Lock and Security on North Mills Avenue, which is donating 50 percent of its duplicate-key sales to the family for the entire month of December.

Dove Funeral Home took care of all of the funeral arrangements.

The cause of Cox's death has not yet been determined by the medical examiner. The results of toxicology reports will be released in a couple of weeks.
